TO  OUR  TRADE. 

To  meet  a demand  from  certain  sections  for  a heater  to  carry  hot-water 
radiation,  Mr.  Pease  has  recently  invented  the  Heater  which  is  illustrated 
and  described  in  this  circular.  A number  of  them  have  been  set,  and  we 
believe  that  Mr.  Pease  “budded  better  than  he  knew.”  The  Heater  has 
the  advantage  of  possessing  a thoroughly  tested  construction  of  one  of  the 
heaters  which  we  have  been  successfully  manufacturing  during  the  past  ten 
years.  Although  it  is  young  it  has  a sturdy  ancestry,  and  we  believe  our 
success  in  the  manufacture  of  sanitary  heating  and  ventilating  apparatus 
will  be  a sufficient  guarantee  for  its  future  success.

CONSTRUCTION. 

This  Heater  is  cylindrical  in  shape  and  of  about  the  same  construction 
as  our  Low-Down  Combination  Steam  and  Warm-Air  I Ieater  (described  on 
page  ii  of  our  1890  Catalogue.) 

The  Bottom  Z,  Ash  Pit  A',  Fire  Pot  Z,  Combustion  Chamber  SS,  Feed 
Chute  F , Dust  Damper  /,  and  Double  Casing  T are  the  same  as  those  used 
in  the  construction  of  the  Heater  above  mentioned. 

The  Hot  Water  Chambers  CCC  are  flat  and  round,  made  of  heavy  cast- 
iron  (2-inch  interior  vertical  diameter),  and  are  connected  to  one  another 
by  the  upright  connections  DDD.  These  connections  are  screwed  into 
shoulders  on  the  chambers  and  are  lock-nutted  thereto  over  asbestos  and 
lead-filled  cup  joints.  These  chambers  are  suspended  inside  of  the  com- 
bustion chamber  in  such  a manner  as  not  to  impair  the  draft,  but  to  retard 
the  exit  of  the  products  of  combustion  until  the  heat  is  entirely  yielded. 
The  fire  exposure  is  as  nearly  uniform  as  it  is  possible  to  obtain,  and 
inasmuch  as  each  alternate  section  extends  from  side  to  side  of  the  com- 
bustion chamber,  the  product  of  combustion  is  forced  to  traverse  over  the  entire 
top  and  bottom  surface  of  each  section.  The  heated  gases  and  smoke  ascend 
alternately  around  the  sides  of  the  smaller  chambers  and  through  four 
flues  near  the  center  of  each  of  the  larger  sections  until  the  exit  flue  A is 
reached,  where  they  pass  into  the  smoke  pipe  several  degrees  cooler  than 
from  any  other  hot-water  heater  made. 

In  this  Heater  the  water  circulation  is  positive  and  continuous.  The 
returns  may  enter  the  lower  chamber  on  any  side  of  the  Heater  which  may 
be  most  convenient,  and  the  water  circulates  upward  through  every  portion 
of  the  interior  of  each  chamber  before  reaching  the  distributing  feed  pipe, 
passing  as  many  times  over  the  fire  as  there  are  sections  used. 


• ADVANTAGES. 5 


DOUBLE  CAPACITY. 

The  primary  advantage  embodied  in  this  Heater  is  one  which  has  been 
a large  element  in  making  a popular  reputation  for  our  Combination 
Steam  and  Warm-Air  Heater,  and  that  is  a Double  Capacity  for  producing 
Direct  and  Indirect  Heat. 

The  Indiretfl  Heat  is  produced  by  taking  the  air  from  the  outside 
through  the  cold-air  duct  Y,  and  passing  it  through  the  air-heating  cham- 
ber ArNNN'  in  the  same  manner  as  by  a Warm-Air  Furnace.  The  air  is 
properly  heated,  moistened  by  water  evaporation  (from  a vapor-pan  not 
shown  in  cut),  and  is  distributed  through  the  warm-air  pipe  OO  to  the 
registers  in  the  principal  apartments  nearest  to  the  Heater. 

The  Direcft  Hot-Water  Radiation  is  obtained  by  a continuous 
circulation  of  water,  which  passes  into  the  lower  chamber  C,  and  then  on 
being  heated  passes  up  through  each  of  the  corresponding  sections  and 
through  the  feed  pipes  to  the  radiators,  where  the  heated  water  radiates 
its  heat  and  by  natural  gravity  returns  to  the  lower  section  of  the  Heater 
to  be  reheated. 

VENTILATION. 

It  is  from  a knowledge  of  the  fact  that  our  Combination  Systems  of 
heating  provide  a means  for  perfect  ventilation,  that  we  are  enabled  to 
claim  for  this  Heater  a decided  superiority  over  any  All-Hot-Water  Heater. 

Where  proper  exit  ventilation  is  provided,  as  a natural  consequence 
our  Combination  Hot-Water  System  ensures  a circulation  of  fresh  warm 
air  throughout  the  building.  We  believe  that  the  atmospheric  condition 
in  a house  heated  by  our  Combination  Heaters  is  greatly  superior  to  that 
in  a building  heated  by  direct  hot-water  radiation  only.  The  latter  system 
provides  no  means  for  furnishing  a fresh  air  supply  ; it  simply  heats  the 
air  in  each  room  many  times  over.  It  is  a well  recognized  fact  that  such 
methods  of  heating  exhaust  the  oxygen  and  render  the  air  impure  and 
unhealthful. 


RADIATION. 


There  are  two  features  in  the  ordinary  All-Hot-Water  Systems  of 
heating  which  form  important  objections  to  such  methods.  We  assume 
and  believe  that  separate  indirect  radiation  with  an  all-hot-water  plant  is 
impracticable,  and  hence  we  draw  our  comparisons  with  the  Direct  System. 

The  first  of  the  objecftions  mentioned  is  the  acknowledged  fact  that 
to  secure  the  same  amount  of  heat  that  can  be  obtained  from  a given 
amount  of  steam  radiation,  an  increased  amount  of  radiating  surface  is 
recpiired — usually  from  50  to  75  per  cent.  more.  This  necessity  naturally 
adds  a large  amount  to  the  first  cost  of  the  plant,  to  make  no  mention  of 
the  larger  space  occupied  by  the  radiators 

The  second  objection  is,  that  with  Direct  All-Hot-Water  Systems 
there  is,  more  frequently  than  otherwise,  a necessity  of  locating  the  direct 
radiators  in  the  most  conspicuous  places  in  the  first  floor  rooms,  where  they 
invariably  conflict  with  other  and  more  ornamental  articles  of  furniture. 
This  is  an  objection  to  which  the  house-wife  never  becomes  reconciled. 

In  the  use  of  our  Combination  System  of  Hot-Water  Heating 
these  objections  are  entirely  eliminated  : 

Because  — the  indirect  heat  from  the  furnace  proper  is  passed  up  into 
the  main  lower  floor  rooms  through  registers  sunk  in  the  floor,  obviating 
the  necessity  of  direct  radiators  in  the  principal  rooms,  and  naturally 
making  the  cost  far  less  for  our  system  than  for  a plant  which  would 
necessitate  from  40  to  60  per  cent,  more  radiating  surface. 

We  will  bring  our  argument  down  to  a practical  application,  and  cite 
some  figures  which  we  believe  will  be  found  reliable  and  equitable.  For 
example  : given,  to  heat  a library  of  20  x 20  feet,  10  feet  high — 4,000  cubic 
feet.  Figuring  close  and  assuming  that  the  room  is  well  protected,  it 
would  require  at  least  100  feet  of  direct  hot-water  radiation  (occupying 
a floor  space  of  5 feet  by  3 feet  high.  This,  with  the  necessary  valves, 
in  an  estimate  would  cost  the  purchaser  from  $40.00  to  $45.00.  To  heat 
the  same  space  from  the  furnace  proper,  a 12-inch  tin  pipe  of  average 
length  and  a 12  x 15  nickel-plated  register  and  border,  with  box,  etc., 
would  be  necessary,  the  cost  of  which  to  purchaser  would  be  from  $10.00 
to  $12.00.  (These  figures  urould  be  lessened  by  using  japanned  registers.) 
We  submit  that  it  is  fair  to  state  that  a minimum  saving  of  $25.00  per 
room  is  guaranteed  for  every  room  heated  by  indirect  heat  in  the  use 
of  our  system. 


A SIGNIFICANT  FEATURE. 


We  claim  that  in  our  construction  the  boiler  surfaces  are 
exposed  to  the  highest  degree  of  heat  which  the  combustion  produces , 
and  in  such  a manner  as  to  render  no  portion  of  the  exposed 
chambers  waste  surfaces.  A consistent  retention  of  the  heated 
gases  and  smoke,  is  effectively  accomplished.  The  smoke  and 
oases  finally  find  exit  through  the  smoke  flue  after  yielding

their  heat. 

In  our  experience  two  classes  of  heaters  have  frequently 
come  under  our  observation  in  which  two  conditions  entirely 
opposite  to  one  another  have  made  them  obviously  inefficient 
in  the  power  of  economically  producing  heat.  In  the  one — 
taking  cheap  direct-draft  heaters,  for  example — the  smoke  and 
gases  having  a too  free  access  to  the  smoke  flue  only  exert 
their  forces  to  heat  up  the  flue,  promote  a stronger  draft  and 
create  an  ineffective  combustion.  This  class  only  proves  suc- 
cessful in  the  coal-dealer’s  point  of  view.  In  the  other — taking 
for  an  example  a class  of  heaters  which  force  the  product  of 
combustion  several  times  around  the  heater  in  an  unnatural 
course — the  struggling  contra  forces  maintain  a low  state  of 
combustion  which  is  entirely  inadequate  to  heat  the  chambers. 
The  radiating  surfaces  are  apparently  uniquely  arranged  to 
absorb  the  heat,  but  a disregard  for  the  requirements  of  natural 
law  prevents  effective  results. 

A technical  examination  of  our  apparatus  will  reveal  a con- 
sistent distribution  of  boiler  and  radiating  surfaces.  Purchasers 
can  to  an  undisputed  degree  of  certainty  expect  a maximum  of 
result  from  a mininunn  of  expenditure.

DEFINITE  REASONS 

Why  our  Combination  Heater  Merits  Careful  Consideration,  and 
Why  we  Claim  that  it  Approaches  Nearer  to  Perfection 
than  any  other  Hot  Water  Heater. 


1.  BECAUSE  p roper  facilities  for  ventilation  are  assured 
to  the  purchaser. 

2.  BECAUSE  our  system  requires  much  less  radiation 
than  Direct  Hot-Water  Systems. 

3.  BECAUSE  it  precludes  the  necessity  for  direct  radiators 
where  they  are  not  wanted. 

4.  BECAUSE  the  fuel  consumed  is  entirely  utilized  in 
producing  heat. 

5.  BECAUSE  it  is  easily  cleaned  of  the  natural  accumula- 
tion of  soot. 

6.  BECAUSE  it  can  be  adjusted  to  heat  windward  and 
distant  rooms,  which  warm  air  from  a furnace  could  not  reach. 

7.  BECAUSE  its  capac  ity  for  hot-water  radiation  can  be 
regulated  to  suit  the  demand. 

8.  BECAUSE  no  more  fuel  need  be  consumed  at  any  time 
than  is  necessary. 

9.  BECAUSE  the  fu  ndamental  principles  employed  in  its 
construction  are  based  on  nearly  forty  years  of  practical  ex- 
perience in  Warm-Air  and  Combination  Heating,  and  because 
it  possesses  all  the  advantages  of  the  indirect  heat-producing 
portion  of  our  Combination  Steam  Heaters,  which  have  been 
a great  success  ever  since  they  were  introduced  in  1882.
